"He is going to be the 10th member of your crew", said Shakky pointing at Kenshin. Sanji looked at Kenshin and found that Kenshin is taller and more handsome than him.
"I reject him. After having me, there is no need for another handsome man in the crew", said Sanji angrily. Seeing this Kenshin, Rayleigh and Shakky just laughed.
"He is very strong you know. He can help you guys", said Rayleigh.
"Ohh ho, he is strong. Ok, fight with me. I can't let you see my Nami-swan and Robin-chan", said Sanji.
"Okay but let me finish my meal first", said Kenshin. Rayleigh and Shakky just saw this and smiled. Duval and gang don't know Kenshin, so they didn't think much about it.
After that Kenshin and Sanji went outside the bar to fight. Rayleigh came to the front and acted as proctor of the match. "BEGIN"
Just after Rayleigh said 'Begin', Sanji used his speed to dash towards Kenshin and kick his face. To which Kenshin just dodged is casual. After that Sanji sent a barrage of kicks but were easily dodged by Kenshin.
Sanji got angry and used his Haki and used Poêle à Frire: Spectre of Diable Jambe and send another barrage of kicks which were even faster and power than before but it was all useless and Kenshin easily evaded them all.
Seeing this Kenshin easily evaded he mocked, "Do you know only how to dodge you bastard". Kenshin just sighed listening to it. Sanji used Diable Jambe concasse towards Kenshin's head. But this time Kenshin didn't dodge, he just coated his hand with Haki and used thumb and index finger to catch the incoming strike without moving an inch.
Seeing him catch the attack so casually shocked Sanji as how easily he caught it. Rayleigh was surprised by Kenshin's growth. He thought Kenshin is as powerful as him in his prime.
After catching, Kenshin threw Sanji away. After that Kenshin said, "Am I strong enough to be in your ship". He knew that Sanji was just checking his strength.
"You are already so strong, why are you coming to our ship", asked Sanji.
"For fun and adventure", said Kenshin plainly. This surprised Sanji but nevertheless accepted the reason.
Sanji then noticed a sword hanging down Kenshin's waist. He asked, "Are you a swordsman". To which Kenshin just said, "Yes". After that Shakky told Sanji about Kenshin and his deeds in NewWorld which shocked him very much.
After hearing that Sanji thought, "He is a swordsman, I will ask him to beat that moss head too. I don't feel nice to be the one defeated. That moss head should also be defeated. It will be fun to watch him loose". Like this Sanji planned his plan to embarrass Zoro.
After that Sanji went to find Zoro. After that similar to like in the manga, everything happened to start from Nami and Usopp beating the fake Straw Hats, Brooks concert, Zoro cutting a ship, Luffy using Conqueror's Haki, and finally Marines using Pacifistas to capture straw hats.
After that Shakky, Rayleigh and Kenshin went to the groove where Thousand Sunny was docked.
"Hello There", said Rayleigh.
"Hello Rayleigh-san, Shakky", said Nami. Then she turned towards Kenshin and looked at him.
"He is Kenshin, Luffy asked him to join but he refused earlier but now accepted the offer", said Rayleigh.
"Kenshin, the rookie who stormed Marine-ford same as Luffy", said Nami.
"Blood Devil Kenshin with a bounty of 1.7 Billion Belly", said Robin.
"1.7 Billion"
The amount shocked everyone on the ship. Franky, Usopp and chopper who were there become surprised. Shakky and Rayleigh just laughed at their antics.
"Ok, the situation is a bit complicated here now. The fake straw hats have grabbed the attraction of Marines and Marines are trying to capture them. But you guys are here also", said Rayleigh. Hearing them they were shocked.
"I have contacted Brook-chan, he will be here shortly", said Shakky. Meanwhile, Rayleigh gave Nami the instruction to operate ship coating.
"Luffy is on the island, so you guys don't worry. Sanji and Zoro are also coming", said Rayleigh. After that Shakky went to the bar and Rayleigh just wait there for the others to arrive. In between Kenshin also jumped on the ship.
"h-h-hhi, I am Usopp. The captain of the ship", said Usopp. Just after he said Nami came and knocked him out and said, "No, he is not the captain. I am Nami by the way, the ship's Navigator".
"Hi, I am Kenshin, a swordsman", said Kenshin showing them his sword. After that Robin, Chopper and Franky also came to introduce themselves. Franky didn't forget to pose. Kenshin thought, "Franky must have reincarnated into Jojo's adventure anime sometime. That must be the reason behind him posing".
After they introduced themselves, Brook came and like in the anime he asked Nami about his panties only to get kicked in his head by Nami. Kenshin just laughed at them and thought, "Looks like it will be an exciting adventure"
After that Luffy, Zoro and Sanji came. Luffy looked at everyone and greeted them. Zoro stayed silent. Sanji just watched Nami and fainted due to Nosebleed. Luffy then looked at Kenshin and his eyes shined for a moment, then he said, "Kenshin. You are here. Hehe I knew you will join", said Luffy while laughing.
After that everyone bade farewell and went on. After that, some Marine Ship came and started bombarding towards them. Kenshin saw threw some stones that he had picked towards the Marines. Everybody from Strawhat saw this and looked at the Marine Ships to check if anything happened.
When they looked at the Marine Ship, cold sweat run behind their back. They saw three marine ships were completely destroyed. Seeing this Kenshin just smiled at them. After that like in the anime Kuja pirates came to see them off. Luffy was scolded by Sanji for enjoying the sight of beautiful girls.
After that Luffy gave a small speech as to thank them in agreeing to his request of delaying their quest by 2 years. After that Nami gave a short description of how coating works which no one listened except Kenshin, Franky, and Robin.
After they went inside everybody was fascinated by the breathtaking scenery. After that Zoro and Luffy were trying to catch fish which caused Nami to be angry and punch them in the head. After that, they began talking about their experiences in these 2 years.
"Kenshin heard you were pretty famous in New World", asked Usopp. This attracted other's attention as they wanted to know more about New World.
"Hmmmm…. You can say so", said Kenshin.
"How is New World", asked Usopp and Luffy.
"How? It is pretty dangerous than here. The people are stronger and nature is also very dangerous", said Kenshin remembering some of the disastrous climates.
"Why did you come here and accepted Luffy's offer in joining", asked Robin.
"Even after 2 years the number of the island I visited was less than expected as I was alone so moving around was difficult without proper navigation. And I want to enjoy as I was bored most of the time", said Kenshin.
"Why they call you blood devil", asked Chopper in a fearful manner.
"Ohh that. It was because I killed a lot of pirates", said Kenshin.
Like that they talked for some time. They asked Kenshin about many things to which Kenshin answered unhurriedly. Kenshin also asked them about themselves. Even though he knows, he still asked just to know more and not cause any weird suspicion.
After that Kenshin looked at Zoro and said, "You are Mihawk's student". Causing Zoro to raise an eyebrow. Seeing Zoro alert Kenshin said with a smile, "No need to be so serious. And how is that stone-faced bastard is doing? It's been 6 months since I have seen him".
"No, I am not his student. He just taught me some things and that's all. I am going to beat him in the future and become the world's best swordsman", said Zoro.
"Ohh world's best swordsman, you have a long way to go for that. Because I am going to be the best swordsman in the world after I defeat Mihawk", said Kenshin. Kenshin said this to instill a competition that will push the straw hats to be stronger.
"I have heard a lot of rumor of your duels between you and Mihawk and how destructive they were", said Robin.
"Well, I fought with him a few times and the result was draw most of the time. But now I am confident I will be able to defeat him", said with a dazzle which caused Robin's heart rate to increase.
"That doesn't matter I will just defeat you after that", said Zoro.
"Let me show you my strength", said Kenshin while looking at Caribou's ship coming towards them which was pulled by a cowfish of Arlong Pirates.
After that Kenshin activated his sword domain and when Caribou's ship came in the domain, he just swung his hand and Caribou's ship got completely destroyed shocking the hell out of everyone on the ship. Kenshin looked at them and said, "You will require this much strength to at least fight a Yonko".
